The Queen Mother cannot afford to lose, and she will pay for this loss with her own life!
The little emperor knew what the Queen Mother was worried about. He smiled bitterly and said, "Where does the Queen Mother think the money that King Yu embezzled was used?"
Controlling floods in the south of the Yangtze River and calming down canal disasters are a huge expense for the entire Great Xia.
It is equivalent to five years of fiscal tax revenue across the country.
With so much money, the little emperor secretly sent people to investigate, but nothing was found. What does this mean?
Isn’t it clear at a glance?
King Yu is secretly raising troops! Why raise troops?
The Queen Mother was surprised to find that her back was soaked with cold sweat.
After a long while, she said calmly: "You are right..."
Li Yu cannot die. Once Li Yu dies, Daxia's troops will be in chaos!
The little emperor also had a headache. A mere Li Yu was actually involved in the survival of Daxia. He was not a minister at all. He was simply an uncle.
After all, it is just a matter of military power!
The Queen Mother thought for a while and said: "Leave the matter of the Jiangnan Water Canal to Li Yu. In terms of qualifications, there is really no one in the court who can compare with him. It is said that he single-handedly promoted the soldiers guarding Jiangnan."
"Leave the matter of suppressing bandits to him as well."
"In addition, this year's Immortal Sect Competition will be held in our country. I am afraid that we will need to mobilize troops to guard one or two. A few days ago, the Immortal Chief of Netherworld Sect sent us a message that they will arrive in the near future. We must not Don’t be negligent.”
"I know." The little emperor lowered his eyes and said.
Immortal affairs should not be dealt with by mortals, but the founding emperor of Daxia was a far-sighted man. He tied the Yuqing Palace to his country thousands of years ago as a divine needle to stabilize the sea; and the founding emperor insisted on using the strong national power as an excuse. The venue for the Immortal Sect Competition, which is held every ten years, is set aside in the country.
The Immortal Realm has one palace, three mountains and fourteen gates, headed by Yuqing Palace, which is the first palace; below it are the three mountains of Huashan Qingwei Sword Sect, Penglai Tianshan Academy, and Taixuan Mountain Piaomiao Sect. The fourteen gates are further divided into the upper seven gates. and the lower seven gates.
These fourteen sects are said to have seven lower sects, but they are not divided based on strength. The lower seven sects are insidious and evil, but in the end they follow a serious path of cultivating immortals, but they are not as upright as the Sword Sect.
Compared to existences like Yuqing Palace, it seems out of place. At least these people are not demons, ghosts or monsters, and they have not done anything harmful to nature.
Therefore it is called the Lower Seven Gates.
The Nether Sect mentioned by the Queen Mother is one of the lower seven sects. No matter what kind of reputation they have in the world of immortality, for mortals, they are immortals who cannot afford to offend.
The palace had been preparing for a palace banquet to welcome the Netherworld Sect early in the morning. It was said that this time the Immortal Sect Grand Competition, the Netherworld Sect sect master who never left the mountain would come in person.
The Immortal Grand Competition is a grand event held once every ten years in the world of immortality. Hundreds of Immortal sects gather together to practice martial arts and compete with each other to determine the leaders of the new generation. It is also a good opportunity for these young people to become famous.
As soon as Wen Ruxi returned to the palace, before she could change out of her cumbersome palace clothes, she was stopped by Gu Yanzhi and informed of the news.
Gu Yanzhi was the leader of the Immortal Realm in his time, and he had been there for a hundred years. Seeing Wen Ruxi reaching the age he was back then, Gu Yanzhi couldn't help but think of the past events of his youth.
"After a while, we should go south to prepare for the Immortal Competition."
Wen Ruxi nodded. She had expected this before going down the mountain. Gu Yanzhi had been in seclusion for sixteen years and missed the last immortal competition. Wen Ruxi was still young at that time and wanted to follow Xiao Zhang secretly, but she didn't expect it. He was carried back before he even got down the mountain.
I have been practicing hard for many years just to stand out in the Immortal Sect Competition!
Wen Ruxi clasped her fists and said, "I will definitely live up to Master's expectations."
Gu Yanzhi's face was always deserted. He didn't care about the so-called false reputation, but this experience was a good experience and it also allowed Wen Ruxi to see clearly what it meant to have someone outside the world.
As for the ranking, it is still secondary.
Gu Yanzhi said: "Just do your best."
Wen Ruxi agreed, but she was thinking in her heart, that's not possible. Master was the leader back then, how could I, the people from Yuqing Palace, be so bad?
Wen Ruxi has always been very competitive and has a single-minded mentality. She would rather break than bend. She is a person who refuses to look back even if she hits a wall.
Gu Yanzhi didn't have much contact with her, and there were differences between men and women. He had been taken care of her when he was a child, and he had to be careful to avoid suspicion when he grew up.
When Wen Ruxi agreed, he thought she had really remembered it, nodded and prepared to leave.
He lived with Xiao Zhang and Shen Ze. Changle Palace was the princess's dormitory. Gu Yanzhi was considered a foreigner and it was inconvenient to live here. Wen Ruxi was also a young lady after all, and he always had to consider her reputation.
The words are divided into two parts, each expressing one branch.
Besides, Mo Qing and here, since she left the palace gate, she seems to be particularly relaxed and happy.
Now that Li Yu was back, there would be nothing wrong with her. Mo Qing packed up his things and planned to go to the demon world to recuperate with Bai Yanxi.
He was humming a tune he didn't know where he heard it from.
The little fox looked up at her and said, "You look very happy."
Mo Qing lowered his head and said, "Of course I'm happy."
"The human world is too turbid. How can I feel comfortable in the demon world?"
Those who can transform into demons are the creatures of heaven and earth. Although their spiritual energy is not as good as those of those who cultivate immortals, it is still a good place for Zhongling Yuxiu.
What's more, after going to the demon world and spending time with Bai Yanxi, are you still worried about not being able to eat those delicious foods?
Mo Qing and Ke Ke have not forgotten how delicious the spiritual spring water and mangrove fruits in the demon world are.
If nothing else, it was Bai Yanxi's exquisite craftsmanship. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't climb over it at the beginning, Mo Qing and Zhen would have wanted to go to the demon world early in the morning to eat and drink.
Mo Qing's usually lazy eyebrows arched.
Bai Yanxi raised her fox eyes and looked at her, feeling as if something was staring at her back.
It’s so weird!
Suddenly, several bright butterflies flew in the air. These butterflies looked similar to the butterflies next to them at first glance, but if you look closely, you can see the differences in the patterns on their wings.
Jiang Si raised her arm when she saw the butterfly, and the butterfly naturally landed on her fingertips, and immediately turned into aura and dissipated with a "pop".
Mo Qingyu raised his eyes and looked at her, as if asking, "What did you say?"
Jiang Si understood and smiled: "They are here."
"So soon?" Mo Qingyu was stunned for a moment, counted the time with his fingers, and said, "Yes, their troublesome immortal competition is about to begin."
Jiang Si nodded and said: "This guy Li Wen is leading the team himself. Master, do you want to meet them?"
Mo Qingyu said without hesitation: "I won't go."
Whether they come here for sex or not, what do they do to her? She is only a nominal person at best. In fact, Jiang Si is responsible for the management.
Mo Qingyu has a lazy temperament, and it is too troublesome to go out and meet people.
With this time, she might as well go back and have a good rest, regain her strength, and strive to no longer be restricted to such a small wheelchair as soon as possible!
Jiang Si just asked casually, pinched it with his fingertips, and a butterfly appeared from his palm that looked like it had just scattered.
The butterfly flapped its wings tentatively and then flew away.
After replying to the letter, he continued walking in the direction of Li's house. On the way, he still brought a small bag of candy for that little guy Li Xuanze.
Just after passing the gate of Li Mansion, before entering, I heard a burst of laughter.
Li Yu is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his early forties, with gray hair on his temples and cold and dignified features.
He is very tall and strong. Li Pei and Li Xuan are not very similar to him. They are both weak and scholarly, but Li Yu himself is tall and powerful.
Li Yu once worked as a demon guard, and his hands were stained with a lot of blood. Even if he has been a man for a long time, he cannot erase the demonic nature in his bones, but this demonic nature looks like evil spirit in the human world.
He is a general, and with this evil aura, no one dares to provoke him.
However, Li Yu was only wearing a gray-white shirt at this time. The clothes were so thin that you could see the outline of the solid muscles underneath. If you only looked at his figure, you really couldn't tell that his age was already considered high among mortals. Old.
Li Yu was already hundreds of years old when he escaped from the Demon Realm. He truly became a mortal only after he shed his Demonic Bones, and it has only been twenty or thirty years since then.
Li Yuzheng patted his eldest son on the shoulder with his hand like a cattail leaf fan, looking quite satisfied.
Although Li Pei was excited when he saw his father, he also knew his father's temperament, so he calmed down and began to tell everything about what happened in the Li Mansion during the days when Li Yu was away.
Li Yu frowned as he listened, and finally sighed helplessly: "That's fine. You did the right thing clearly. Your second brother, hey..."
No one knows better than Li Yu why Li Xuan cannot hold up the wall.
There was nothing Li Yu could do about this child. Now that Li Xuan was married and his child was older, it would be a good idea to separate from the Li Mansion.
Li Yu turned around as if feeling something, and when he saw Mo Qingyu's figure, his body became respectful unconsciously.
He quickly walked up to Mo Qingyu, and his iron-like body completely blocked Mo Qingyu's sight.
Mo Qing said to Mo Mo: "Li Yu, there is no need to stand so close."
Li Yu is just a big fool in the Demon Guard. He looks grand, but his mind seems to be full of muscles, which is not easy to use at all.
It's hard for the little emperor Daxia to be on guard against him all day long.
Li Yu touched the back of his head, revealing his confused attitude when he faced Mo Qing at the Demon Guard.
"Oh." He took two steps back and was about to say something before he remembered that there was a son standing behind him and hurriedly asked Li Pei to go down first.
After closing the door and making sure that no one was around, Li Yu half-knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "My subordinate is not doing his job well, so please save me, master."
Mo Qing tapped his palms with the folding fan and said casually: "It doesn't matter, just get up."
"Please take care of me during this period. Now that I have left the Demon Guard, I can live in the human world. I will prepare to leave for the demon world in a few days."
